Other than a change of colour from Simba orange to Great Plains green, the move from shear bolt to sprung tine protection and the more recent addition of a limited disc angling option, the X-Press short disc harrow has hitherto remained pretty much the same as the first models that rolled off the Sleaford production line more than ten years ago. Over that time, the X-Press has established itself as one of the most popular cultivation tools of its type throughout the UK, across Western Europe and beyond.

AccuShot, a new and unique liquid fertiliser application system soon to be available as an option on selected Great Plains Yield-Pro planters, is being hailed by the manufacturer as a major new advance that will help maize growers around the world to maximise yields, whilst reducing their input costs and minimising fertiliser waste.

The new system was officially launched and unveiled to the public for the first time at Agritechnica, the world’s largest trade fair for agricultural machinery and equipment, held recently in Hannover, Germany.

Making its global debut on the Great Plains stand at Agritechnica was the first in a new generation of Spartan drills. The 6-meter SpartanII 607 model is the fifth series of 6-meter drills designed by Great Plains specifically for Europe since 2004.

Built around tried and tested components and technologies such as the well-proven zone cultivation design of Great Plains’ 07 Series opener, the new Spartan incorporates a wide range of new and improved features.

A new 3-metre transport version of Great Plains’ most successful vertical tillage implement, the Turbo-Max, recently made its Western European debut in Germany at Agritechnica, the world’s largest agricultural machinery trade fair.
